A Woman's Spin on Stress

A young lady   confidently walked around the room while leading and explaining stress   management to an audience with a raised glass of water. Everyone knew she was   going to ask the ultimate question, 'half empty or half full?'... She fooled   them all .... "How heavy is this glass of water?" she inquired with a   smile. 

Answers called out   ranged from 8 oz. To 20 oz.

She replied , "The   absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long I hold it.  

If I hold it for a   minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in   my right arm. If I hold it for   a day, you'll have to call an ambulance. In each case it's the same weight,   but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes." She continued, "and that's   the way it is with stress. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or   later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry   on."

"As with the glass   of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it   again. When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden - holding stress   longer and better each time practiced.

So, as early in the evening as   you can, put all your burdens down. Don't carry them through the evening and   into the night... Pick them up tomorrow.
